Law & precedent preclude Judge Chutkan from preemptively putting Trump in custody. The proper procedure is to issue a gag order, and THEN lock him up when he fails to abide.

There is No supernatural, No god(s), No heavens, No hells.
When we die, we cease to exist.
WISHING does not change reality. *I* would LOVE to believe in an afterlife, it is a MUCH happier thought than the actual reality.

Donald Trump is now scheduled to testify 11/6 in NY civil fraud trial.
This is a civil trial, so Trump must testify even though heβs the defendant. If he refuses, or pleads 5th, or commits perjury, the judge can use that as a basis for even bigger damages.

It is not the judge's job to "get the majority of Americans on board." Her SOLE job is to decide legal issues with impartiality. We should NOT want her to have any other agenda. It is OUR job to assure Americans in the middle that Judge Chutkan is being fair & impartial.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy was just voted out of the job in a first in US history, forced by hard-right MAGAs, and threw the House & GOP leadership into chaos.
Next steps are uncertain, but there is no obvious successor to lead the House Republican majority.
On Super Tuesday, voters in northern Californiaβs Shasta county weighed the fate of a far-right official who said elections were being rigged and backed effort to eliminate voting machines.
Two weeks after the election, the recall remains too close to call

Trump questioned why Nikki Haleyβs husband wasnβt on the campaign trail, drawing sharp responses from both Haley and her husband, who is currently abroad with National Guard.
... example of Trump disparaging opponents based on their military service
A bit more than 1/2 of us vote in Presidential elections, less than 1/2 in non-Presidential elections (2018, 2022...), and only a TINY number of us vote in Primaries, Local elections, Special elections.

Today's MAGA are NOT the anomaly! Except for a 30-year reversal starting in 1941, America 250-year history has been dominated by Racists, Xenophobes, and religiously-driven Misogynists.

The life ambition of Hamas is to destroy Israel.
The life ambition of Netanyahu and those like him is to push all Palestinians out of Palestine.
BOTH Netanyahu AND Hamas consider Palestinian lives collateral damage.
[Haaretz is a leading Israeli newspaper]
βAnyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas,β Netanyahu told his Likud partyβs Knesset members in March 2019. βThis is part of our strategy"

So that would mean that George Washington was a terrorist, right? If you assert that the morality of the cause is irrelevant, you MUST conclude that George Washington was a terrorist.

John Oliver joked that he butts heads with HBO lawyers assigned to his show mostly because of one issue.
βThey think their job is to stop us from getting sued. I think their job is to make sure that when we are sued, we win.β
One week ago, we made history against Republican billionaires...again.
At the start of this cycle, AIPAC put a target on all of the Squad's back, promising to defeat us with a $100M from their GOP megadonors.
AIPAC got a few things wrong. Let's talk about what happened.

US Senate hearing reviewed report showing sectorβs shift from climate denial to βdeception, disinformation and doublespeakβ
A certain kind of person LIKES bullies and thugs - as long as they think the bully/thug is on THEIR side.
[Look at all the vengeance movies in which the HERO summarily executes lots of supposedly bad people.]
Don't doubt that a lot of MAGAs see Trump as their Rambo...
I will never fathom the appeal of this creature. His tendency to bully and name call. His juvenile behavior. His staggering stupidity. His self absorbed demeanor. His criminal conduct. His propensity for misogyny and his complete betrayal of all that America stands for.
